Salmos 31:1-6

1 En ti, oh SEÑOR, me refugio; jamás sea yo avergonzado; líbrame en tu justicia.

2 Inclina a mí tu oído, rescátame pronto; sé para mí roca fuerte, fortaleza para salvarme.

3 Porque tú eres mi roca y mi fortaleza, y por amor de tu nombre me conducirás y me guiarás.

4 Me sacarás de la red que en secreto me han tendido; porque tú eres mi refugio.

5 En tu mano encomiendo mi espíritu; tú me has redimido, oh SEÑOR, Dios de verdad.

6 Aborrezco a los que confían en ídolos vanos; mas yo confío en el SEÑOR.

Salmos 31:1-6 Meaning and Commentary

To the chief Musician, a Psalm of David. This psalm, according to Arama, was composed by David when in Keilah; but, according to Kimchi and others, when the Ziphites proposed to deliver him up into the hands of Saul; and who, upon their solicitations, came down and surrounded him with his army, from whom in haste he made his escape, and to which he is thought to refer in Psalm 31:22. Theodoret supposes it was written by David when he fled from Absalom, and that it has some respect in it to his sin against Uriah, in that verse.
